Spotlight: Introducing SMS Actions in SwiftFox Automations!
Things have changed
00:00:00:21 - 00:00:09:20
Hi everyone! Lucy here from the SwiftFox team, and today I'm excited to show you another really powerful addition to SwiftFox Automations - SMS actions.
00:00:09:24 - 00:00:16:27
It's now possible for any new or existing automations to send SMS messages to your contacts. So let's have a look.
00:00:16:31 - 00:00:22:38
Here we have an automation that handles responses to our feedback survey. Since SMS typically gets better response right.
00:00:22:38 - 00:00:28:15
So we're going to add it in as an additional communication channel alongside our thank you email.
00:00:28:19 - 00:00:33:18
Below the email action, we can add a new action and select send SMS.
00:00:33:22 - 00:00:39:38
In the target dropdown you'll see options for message recipients. I'll select the form respondents mobile number.
00:00:39:42 - 00:00:44:41
Note; that this option only appears if your form collects mobile numbers.
00:00:44:45 - 00:00:56:47
If you have multiple numbers registered in SwiftFox, you can choose which one to send from, then compose your message. You'll also find the standard unsubscribe options here. Add your action and that's it!
00:00:57:01 - 00:01:11:09
We're really excited to see how everyone uses this fantastic new addition to automations. We have many new actions planned for our automations roadmap, so stay tuned for more updates. For more information about our features, remember you can always check out the SwiftFox Academy.
